Ended Official BYC Winter Contest Series—Winter on the Farm Photo Contest

Oh my gosh, I feel bad for the bug but that is SO COOL!

You'd be surprised but often if you warm a Ladybug up, it springs back to life, as they hibernate. I've relocated a few I found in frozen birdbath to a shed with an opening, they hibernate in there over winter & come spring they're walking & flying all over. If you come across a motionless Ladybug, just relocate to a sheltered outdoor area, it's not necessary dead.

Mine hate it too. Luckily they have a rain cover and can hide under that if they want to

(Not a submission for contest)
Mine will run through the pen to their covered gazebos, there's dustbath towards the rear, a perch towards front. They'll hang out there, or run back into the coop, so funny. I don't like cold, wet feet either though, so I get it. Lol

I really like that gazebo idea. I've sort of made makeshift versions of those, but plastic tables covered in scraps of tarp definitely don't look as nice as that.

Albert, my all time favorite rooster letting Mother Nature know that a little snow won’t stop him from enjoying the morning! A rooster will still crow...whether it be rain or snow!
